ret is already set as ENOMEM before, so the second ret = -ENOMEM; can be removed.

I prefer to keep it there and let the compiler do the elimination.  
Otherwise inserting any code in the middle may cause a bug (the 
assignment is logically part of the code block, it only matches the 
previous one by accident).

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
